One killed in accident near the AP-7 exit at Ondara

The firefighters at the Dénia station worked a long night, not only extracting the deceased driver but also preventing the fire from spreading to the two colliding vehicles.
The images depict how the smaller vehicle, whose occupant was killed instantaneously, was transformed into an unrecognisable mass of metal.

This morning was an extremely difficult and busy night for the Provincial Fire Consortium, particularly the firemen at the Dénia fire station. They were hard at work responding to the accident at the AP-7 exit in Ondara, on the bridge over the N-332, where a horrific collision occurred. As stated by this newspaper, a huge trailer crashed with a smaller crane vehicle, killing the driver instantaneously.

In addition, the two occupants of the larger truck were injured and transported to Dénia Hospital. Heavy traffic bottlenecks ensued.

Firefighters, who provided these photographs depicting how the smaller vehicle had been reduced to an unrecognisable pile of twisted metal, had to remove the deceased, stop diesel spills, keep both vehicles from catching fire, and clear the route.

Meanwhile, Guardia Civil and Local Police officials directed traffic coming from the highway, Dénia, and other nearby towns. The First Security Force’s traffic investigation department has launched an investigation to identify the cause of the collision, which saw the two vehicles collide nearly head on.
